Anyone who's played Minecraft for a while is familiar with community creations like in-game graphing calculators, QR code generators, and Tetris games built using command blocks, mods, and far too much free time. Building AI tools is a logical next step, and several complicated projects have arisen in that vein using redstone. Reddit user Objz, however, implemented an LLM using only 445,782 command blocks and no mods, plugins, or datapacks. By its creator's description, the project was "a headache."
Objz's LLM isn't actually that large. It only has a 64-dimensional embedding space, a 256-neuron hidden layer, and a tiny vocabulary of 2,048 words, and was trained on 11,118 DailyDialog conversations. Users can talk to it using the game's "/dialog" functionality, and the output stream comes back one word at a time, as with typical chatbots.
